The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury. Cover image copyright Doubleday and/or the artist.

Can you tell I'm a scifi/dystopian fiction fan? I didn't think so. This book has undergone many revisions. I read the original when I was young. Revisions aren't always an improvement.

This was written in response to one of Judey Kalchik's fun challenge ideas. Join in, we'd love to see what ya' got!
